My worst enemies are more valu able to me than my best friends.— Luther.
Well, why shouldn't University students be a success in those "thinking" parts.
What we want to see is a tangle between Mexican revolutionists and the English suffragettes.
Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and occasionally some MAN makes Phi Beta Kappa.
It is against all the ethics of the profession for the news department to beat us to that Shakes-Spear joke.
We point with pride to the fact that the Pan-Hellenic passed without a single reference to "when Greek meets Greek."
As Kansas has won seven out of eight conference games, there is a strong possibility that some of the city sport writers may pick K. U. as champions of the southern division.
CLASS MEMORIALS
But three months remain of this school year and among the many things that remain to be done in that time is the matter of class memorials. This applies especially to the seniors as the other classes will have opportunity to attend to this matter next year.
The senior society of Skull and K has proposed that the class of '13 leave a memorial wall, which would in time become a tradition like the famous Yale fence, on which only seniors are allowed to sit.
The plan is an excellent one and the seniors should begin at once to make arrangements to construct their memorial this spring. If possible, it should be made a distinctly school undertaking. Why not let the engineers draw the plans, have the stone quarried on the campus and the wall actually built by members of the class. It would be necessary, of course, to have experienced stone masons to superintend the work, but the most of the labor could be done by the students.
After the stone was in shape the seniors could set a date for building the wall and every man in the class could do his part toward leaving a gift to the school that would remain for all time. The co-eds could do their share by furnishing the lunch and the whole enterprise could be conducted in a spirit of goodwillship that would make the work seem like play instead of labor.
It would also serve to get the members of the class better acquainted with each other than they are at present.
Let the seniors get together on this proposition and they will set an example to the other classes that will insure a continuation of the custom of leaving memorials in the years to come.
And while economy is a good thing, the legislature should remember that letting the plant run down is not always economy.
GRANDSTAND PLAYERS.
So many men otherwise good are prone to "play grandstand." Did you ever notice the number of men who try this? We have them in every walk of life. The most noticeable fellow is seen at the baseball game.
If you go, you won't fail to notice him. He wears a sweater that is so loud you can hear it. He stands around every chance he has in some sort of pose which he thinks may attract the spectators. He runs like a fox when it doesn't make an unnecessary. When he makes a poor decision and is put out he never fails to limp, as if he would have made the base if he had not been injured.
We have just such characters as the baseball men everywhere we go—in church, lodge, politics and business. As a rule, however, the grand-stand playerools no one but himself.—University Missouri.
GOOD WORK
Two of the sororities are showing true loyalty to a University cause when they postponed their dances because the Denver indoor meet is to take place on the same night. This will enable the men to attend the meet, and some of the women too, and help make a good showing for the University—Silver and Gold.
THE SAD, SAD GRIND OF OUR COLLEGE LIFE
PAPA'S JOB
What is Billy Hardtait doing these days? asked Smithers.
Oh, he's working his son's way through college, said little Binks.

The Woldly Hope man set the
Woldly Hope set the
Lighting a little hours, or two—was gone.

That every Hyacinth the Garden wears
Dropt in her Lap from some once lovely Head.

IN DAYS OF OLD.
Mike Guernon and Roy Givens lost the first case in the court court Monday.
J. R. Brady has been selected as one of the clerks for the spring municipal election.
The X. Y. Z. club elected officers Friday night as follows: President, E. B. Bronson; vice-president, J. E. Courtright; secretary an dtreasurer, John Algie; sergeant-at-arms, J. R. Brady.
Chancellor Strong received notice this week that he had been elected a member of the Phi Beta Kappa honorary fraternity of Yale University.
But everyone had a good time or at least seemed to, and everyone kept his temper. The few exceptions are regretted by everyone concerned. If a fellow is unable to control his temper in a friendly "scrap" he should stay out of it entirely.
The "scrap" between the laws and the engineers which has been brewing for so long has at last come off. The battle clouds have rolled away, peace reigns supreme and no one is hurt. The features of the "scrap" were a tug-of-war, muddy faces, and soiled clothes.
